President Donald Trump will dole out more than one million checks to American military personnel as the administration seeks to address Americans’ growing cost-of-living concerns.
Trump announced in a primetime address on Wednesday a “warrior dividend” for 1.45 million U.S. military personnel to be distributed ahead of the holidays. The announcement of the checks comes as Trump grapples with diminishing approval ratings on the economy and rising concern of an affordability crisis, in part because of the inflationary consequences of his sweeping tariff policy.
